Re: Anonymous: We Had No Idea What Was Coming, Now We Know!
i'll try to help you out and give you some kind of purpose in life, perhaps there will be some redemption in that.
there was once this guy named jesus. he went about teaching and gathering some some ruffians, ne'er-do-wells and regular spittin, cussin, workin guys and fishermen as disciples. there are several books about him. they are called good news becuase what he had to say was, well, good news! one of those books was written by a guy named luke. it was later divided up into chapters. lets peek in on jesus and his disciples there in luke chapter 12.
Luke 12Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)
12 In the mean time, when there were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people, insomuch that they trode one upon another,
he began to say unto his disciples first of all,
Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

what is that? hypocrisy?
hy·poc·ri·sy
həˈpäkrəsē/
noun
noun: hypocrisy; plural noun: hypocrisies
the practice of claiming to have moral standards or beliefs to which one's own behavior does not conform; pretense.
so it is pretending to be something you are not. thats all christianity is these days. they are proud of it. they say they arent righteous, can never be righteous, have to depend on gods sons righteousness to cover for them, etc. they are special. a peculiar people. chosen. no, just plain old run of the mill pharisees and hypocrites. jesus says to be aware fo those people. perhaps he will tell us why.

lolol the kingdom of heaven is upon you. you can either confess your sins or deny your maker, but the jig is up, the charade is over. the time of sitting on your ass and pointing fingers at others will not suffice. where is your cross? where are your footprints in the sand?

Luke 11:5 Friend, lend me three loaves;
luke 15:28 And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him. 29 And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends: 30 but as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
Quote by Bush: “I'm a uniter not a divider. Luke 23:12 And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were at enmity between themselves.

James 2:23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.
James 4:4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
how can anyone say it better?

Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear:
Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell;
yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

6 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?
7 But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Fear not therefore:
ye are of more value than many sparrows.
8 Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God:
**********************************************************************
pro tip: you have to KNOW someone to confess them. confessing a false image of christ doesnt count as confessing christ. nailed it!
*********************************************************************
9 but he that denieth me before men shall be denied before the angels of God.
*********************************************************************
does confessing a false christ count as denying the real one? just askin.
***********************************************************************
10 And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him:
but unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven.

come on, you blasphemers, tell me more and more and more about the holy ghost and what you think of him. you puffed up people have a death wish. fulfil that shit, if you dare. tell me more about how you conjure up spirits with pagan worship in edifices to false idols and call them holy. testify!!!!!!!!!!

and if the holy ghost is speaking through me, a man and a sinner, what does that say about you??????????????????????

13 And one of the company said unto him, Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me.

anybody here get god involved in their petty affairs? how special and chosen and precious. am i mocking christians? absolutely i am. they are pagans. they worship a false christ. anyone can see that looks at it. especially anyone who has read the whole bible all the way through, which most christians havent.
********************************************************************
15 And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness:
********************************************************************
covetousness - for anyone who has read this far you deserve to know what that is. it is basically wanting things to be different than they are. you rule inside of you. god rules everything outside of you. you can choose to hand rulership over to jesus or not inside. surely there are things about yourself you would like to change. jesus will do that with you. but outside of you, its not only you but everyone else involved around you and god has everyone in mind. wanting things to be different, taking certain actions to change the hand of god like murder and theft and lying, those are also prohibited. but they all start pretty much with covetousness. the flesh is consumed with covetousness which is why a) one should not live according to the flesh and b) women should not be in charge because they are the type and shadow of the flesh. they truly cant help it. thats scriptural, too. christians hate scripture right along with the world. they are covetous all the time and are the enemy of god.
*******************************************************************
for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
******************************************************************
dont blow off what i said. possessions are just a form for expressing the mechanism of covetousness. possession is power over something. covetousness is wanting power over things that are in gods domain. and since god owns everything and is all powerful and all knowing and universally present, how can you complain when someone steals from you? you didnt really own it to begin with. be a friend of god and just accept it, forgive, move on. if you want to be gods friend, that is.
*******************************************************************
16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying,
The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
17 and he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater;
and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.
19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years;
take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.
20 But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee:
then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?
21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
*****************************************************************************
Romans 8:7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
pension, anyone? does it show a lack of faith? is it prudent? does it benefit? who does it benefit? is it a trick of the devil?
well, lets see what the lord jesus christ has to say about it.
**************************************************************************
22 And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you,
Take no thought for your life,
what ye shall eat;
neither for the body,
what ye shall put on.
23 The life is more than meat,
and the body is more than raiment.
24 Consider the ravens:
for they neither sow nor reap;
which neither have storehouse nor barn;
and God feedeth them:
how much more are ye better than the fowls?
25 And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit?
26 If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest?
******************************************************************
good question, jesus. wouldnt it be nice if those who call themselves your people and call themselves by your name would act accordingly?
2 Chronicles 7:14 if my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
its all within the power of this mighty group of people to solve all of our problems and set things right for both sinner and saint, but they wont. they dont. they cant. they are unwilling. they cant even see it. they are too busy wallowing in their own affairs. they could care less how the rest of the wor;ld suffers. because if they wanted to, they hold god to his promised word. but no. too hard. cost too much. they walk away sad.
Mark 10:22 And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.
*******************************************************************
27 Consider the lilies how they grow:
they toil not, they spin not;
and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
28 If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to morrow is cast into the oven;
how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little faith?
29 And seek not ye what ye shall eat,
or what ye shall drink,
neither be ye of doubtful mind.
30 For all these things do the nations of the world seek after:
and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things.
31 But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.
32 Fear not, little flock;
for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
33 Sell that ye have, and give alms;
provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.
34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
35 Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning;
36 and ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding;
that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.
37 Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching:
verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.
38 And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants.
*************************************************************************
well thats pretty plain, aint it? but its brushed off and excused away and denied and ignored and - "boy, what a friend we have in jesus, huh? too bad he cant say the same about us, huh?" - christians of the world today
as an aside, what is the first, second and third watch? which one are we in?
*************************************************************************
39 And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through.
40 Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.
41 Then Peter said unto him, Lord, speakest thou this parable unto us, or even to all?
42 And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his lord shall make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of meat in due season?
43 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
44 Of a truth I say unto you, that he will make him ruler over all that he hath.
45 But and if that servant say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; and shall begin to beat the menservants and maidens, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken;
46 the lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.
47 And that servant,
which knew his lord’s will,
which knew his lord’s will,
which knew his lord’s will,
which knew his lord’s will,
which knew his lord’s will,
and prepared not himself,
neither did according to his will,
shall be beaten with many stripes.
48 But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes.
For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required:
and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.
49 I am come to send fire on the earth;
and what will I, if it be already kindled?
50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I straitened till it be accomplished!
51 Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth?
I tell you, Nay; but rather division:
52 for from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.
53 The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
54 And he said also to the people, When ye see a cloud rise out of the west, straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and so it is.
55 And when ye see the south wind blow, ye say, There will be heat; and it cometh to pass.
56 Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time?
57 Yea, and why even of yourselves judge ye not what is right?
58 When thou goest with thine adversary to the magistrate, as thou art in the way, give diligence that thou mayest be delivered from him; lest he hale thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee into prison.
59 I tell thee, thou shalt not depart thence, till thou hast paid the very last mite.
